What happens
The Bride Came C.O.D. is a 1941 American screwball romantic comedy starring James Cagney as an airplane pilot and Bette Davis as a runaway heiress, and directed by William Keighley. Although the film was publicized as the first screen pairing of Warner Bros.' two biggest stars, they had actually worked together in Jimmy the Gent in 1934, and had wanted to find another opportunity to work together. The screenplay was written by twins Julius J. Epstein and Philip G. Epstein, from a story by Kenneth Earl and M. M. Musselman. The basic plot owes much to It Happened One Night, in which an heiress seeks to marry a playboy of whom her father disapproves, only to end up with a charming working man. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
